the rappin’ granny is about to turn 90!


good evening! i thought this was quite a clever & sweet promotion and wanted to share it with you guys – life savers wint-o-green mints are turning ninety years old – and so is actress ellen albertini dow (on november 26th) who you definitely know from playing the rappin’ granny in the wedding singer plus she was the fiery old lady in wedding crashers (she’s actually done tons of work – check out her IMDB page) both the mints and ms. dow have managed to keep their spark going and partnered up for a birthday celebration – it’s quite a feat to be almost a century old! below is a new commercial which brings ‘granny’ and the mints together – she can still totally bust out a rap – oh bless her heart! you can even upload your own minty rap video over on sparking90.com! ninety does sound old but it actually has a nice ring to it – i say more power to ms. dow & the mints! popbytes over & out for now…xoxo
